1991 Mario Lemieux Stanley Cup Finals Game Worn Home Jersey

THE PEN-ULTIMATE!!!

- Worn as he scored the most important and memorable goal in Pittsburgh Penguins history -

- "Pittsburgh was holding a tenuous 2-1 lead late in the second period when Lemieux scored the defining goal of his career. Taking a pass from Phil Bourque in his own zone, Lemieux churned up the ice without either of his wingers. It didn't matter. He was going places only Lemieux could go. He knifed between defensemen Shawn Chambers and Neil Wilkinson after mesmerizing Chambers with the puck, then deked goaltender Jon Casey before sliding a backhander home at 15:04." -

- Bob Grove, Author - Pittsburgh Penguins: The Official History of the First 30 Years -

- "In Game 2 the Penguins got a boost from the return of Coffey, who had missed the previous 10 games with a broken jaw, and from Lemieux, who stepped up with a breathtaking goal the would give his team momentum for the rest of the series. The Penguins led 2-1 when Lemieux took an outlet pass from Bourque and bore down on defenseman Shawn Chambers. He used his backhand to put the puck between Chamber's legs and then raced ahead to pick it up on his forehand. Now it was just Lemieux and Minnesota goalie Jon Casey. Lemieux got Casey to commit to his left by faking a shot, then quickly switched the puck to his backhand, slid to his knees and eased the puck into the open side of the net. The Penguins went on to win the game 4-1, tying the series." -

Max Talbot has two, probably even three goals that beg to differ.

When Max Talbot has any of his goals played during the intro to Hockey Night in Canada, then he can beg to differ.

I bought a jersey from Ross' cousin a few months ago through Ebay. Really cool guy. He was selling all of his jerseys and so I asked what his remaining collection consisted of and he said that he had one of Ross' game worn jerseys that he'd never sell. Definitely one of my coolest jersey-collecting stories.

Probably best that you got outbid anyways. From what his cousin said, he owns his only game worn jersey. Since he only played in 3 games with the big team, I tend to believe that.

Thanks for the info. I believe it was a preseason game worn, I wouldn't have expected to get his NHL lone regular season game jersey. It passed through eBay unclaimed at like $250 once, so I wanted it to come down, so the guy lists it at like $175 and then it gets bid up to like $300...I was like WTF? Ah well...
